In the second game of the first round of the MLS playoffs, Inter Miami lost 1-2 away to Nashville. The two teams tied 1-1 in two rounds and will play the third game. Inter Miami coach Mascherano accepted an interview with the media after the game.

"I don't want to comment on the referee's decision. I understand how the system works and don't want to give them an excuse to come to me for arguments. I'm surprised that they didn't use VAR. I really can't understand that they don't check it when they have this tool. We have to swallow this resentment and save it all week until next Saturday. Vent out. "

"We failed to create good opportunities for Messi in the first half. The offense in the frontcourt was not sharp enough. Of course, the opponent's defense also deserves recognition. Although they tightened their defense in the second half, we still created several opportunities. "

"We did have opportunities. The game was very close. In fact, the penalty kick was exactly that. Due to our high-pressure, we had a chance to equalize the score after falling behind 0-1, but the second goal was not accurate enough. We took a risk in the second half, but unfortunately the goal came too late. I originally hoped that stoppage time could make up for the previous game time, but it failed."

"The more difficult times become. At this moment, the more I want to share the joys and sorrows with the players, the problem today is that we have to face this heartbreaking defeat. You are used to analyzing the results of the game, and I focus on the process of the game. We have our own considerations for improvements, but this is an internal matter. According to your usual results theory, everything today will appear useless, but the team has tried its best."
